. . . where the 1970s live forever!

A grand-slam homer by Darrell Porter in the first inning started the Brewers off to a 9-4 victory over the Orioles. Don Money and Bobby Mitchell walked and George Scott singled to load the bases before Porter came up with two out and connected for his jackpot wallop off Dave McNally.

Singles by Dave May and Money, a triple by Johnny Briggs and an infield out added three runs to the Brewers' total in the fourth. Scott hit a sacrifice fly in the sixth and Money rapped a homer in the eighth. Clyde Wright, who gained his first victory since May 25, gave up a two-run triple by Don Baylor in the first inning, but then held the Orioles in check until the ninth when the Brewers had to call on Tom Murphy to finish the game.
